Pours dark, caramelly brown with a slight cold (?) haze. Small white head, médium stability. Smell is old chocolate, tad caramel, mild bitter touch. Taste is sharp , with a very high carbonation, and thin mouthfeel. Mild oxidation, which I will not take into count for the rating, since the beer isn't as fresh as desired. Medium levels of DMS, over a very weak beer. Underneath the strong carbonation, not much other tastes come trough. Not a fan here...

330 ml. bottle. BBF 31/12/2017. Ugly murky brown (? Weird), little off-white touch tanned head. Nose is sweet tobacco, raisin, sugar, perfume & new age store. Taste is sweet plastic fruit, dried fruit candy, plastic flowers, candy tobacco, low sour, Turkish delight, rose water, new age store, rotting cotton,… Weird seriously what? Thin low metallic heavy perfume, low sour Turkish delight palate,… No idea what this is but not a huge fan.

16/VIII/18 - 33cl bottle @ home - BB: 31/XII/17 (2018-994) Thanks to the brewer for the bottle!
Clear pretty pale amber to red brown beer, small irregular creamy off-white head, little stable, bit adhesive. Aroma: sweetish impression, lots of caramel, milk chocolate, malty, grains, some cocoa powder. MF: ok carbon, medium body. Taste: lots of bitter chocolate up front, some citrus, hoppy touch, bit fruity. Aftertaste: caramel, bit sourish, malty, some milk chocolate, hop bitterness, some cocoa powder. By any means this is not a porter, but it's not a bad beer either... More like a Belgian Dubbel with a touch of roasted malts.
